It didn’t take long to get there. The $360 Black Chip Bounty event had a $30,000 guaranteed prize pool and it was reached well before the first break of the day.

Some new recent additions to the field were Ryan Dunn, Eric Rivkin, Carlos Loving, Charlemagne Benjamin, and Seminole Hard Rock Tampa poker ambassador Wally Maddah.

Level 2: 50/100
Entries: 89

The Black Chip Bounty event kicked off at noon and it’s nearly hit the $30,000 Guarantee before the first hour is complete. Players are limited to a single re-entry option but that won’t stop them from mixing it up trying to earn one of those black $100 casino chips.

WSOP bracelet winner Jason Young is making his first appearance in the ballroom this series and having a good time already. He’s a Northeast transplant to South Florida and is becoming a regular fixture in our events, including a final table appearance during last year’s Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown $250 NLH Event 19.

Level 1: 25/50

Our next, big one-day tournament kicks off at noon with a nice bonus for sending out an opponent. The $360 buy-in tournament has a $30,000 guaranteed prize pool with $100 going towards a bounty on each player’s head.

Knock someone out, get a black $100 cash chip. That should push the action throughout the tournament.

Each entrant begins with a 10,000 starting stack and the tournament runs with 30-minute levels. Late registration is available until the start of Level 9 at 4:30pm and players can only re-enter one time if they are eliminated. Event 6 is scheduled to complete in one day and we will have a new champion before the end of the evening.

They will get underway at noon and keep rolling until we have a winner.
